A Greater Measure of Confidence
The Series 2600B SMU instrument design sup-
ports two modes of operation for use with a vari-
ety of loads. In normal mode, the SMU instru-
ment provides high bandwidth performance
for maximum throughput. In high capacitance
(high-C) mode, the SMU instrument uses a slow-
er bandwidth to provide robust performance
with higher capacitive loads.
Simplify Semiconductor Component
Test, Verification, and Analysis
The optional ACS Basic Edition software
maximizes the productivity of customers who
perform packaged part characterization dur-
ing development, quality verification, or failure
analysis. Key features include:
• Rich set of easy-to-access test libraries
• Script editor for fast customization of
existing tests
• Data tool for comparing results quickly
• Formulator tool that analyzes captured curves
and provides a wide range of math functions
For more information about the ACS Basic
Edition software, please refer to the ACS Basic
Edition data sheet.
Powerful Software Tools
In addition to the embedded Java-based plug &
play software and optional ACS Basic Edition
software, the free Test Script Builder software
tool is provided to help users create, modify,
debug, and store TSP test scripts. Table 1
describes key features of Series 2600B soft-
ware tools.
Three New Dual-Channel Bench-
Top Models of Series 2600B Offer
Industry-Best Value and Performance
For applications that do not require leading-edge
system-level automation capabilities, Keithley
has expanded the Series 2600B to include 3 new
value-priced “bench-top” models – the 2604B,
2614B, and 2634B. These models offer similar
performance to Models 2602B, 2612B, and
2636B, respectively, however do not include TSP-
Link, Contact Check, and Digital I/O capabilities.
